Stress, Angry, Exhausted, HorribleIt has been practically raining for the whole day. I thought Jan isn't suppose to have rainy seasons (past few days also had rain)? Rain has the good and the bad. Good weather to sleep in. Bad because my bag got wet (the umbrella didn't help much) :-/
Lessons had been fine. Except for math, urm, the teacher speaks quite softly even though I can hear her. But well, there will be a new timetable and banding for math next week (i think) so we'll have to wait for the results.
& hcl today was horrid. Literally horrible! Urghh. The new chapter is quite difficult to understand with all the personification words and the content. Whatsmore, there was a total of 4 periods of hcl today! And during the last 2 periods, we had to do a compo relating to what we had learnt in the previous 2 lessons of the day. I was just practically strugging on how to describe my apple tree and how it can relate to our lives. Jin Le had been my LIVE chinese dictionary, which no doubt helped me a lot in the speed of my writing. Yup, so many thanks to her.
Oh oh, and SRM LS, got angry today. Actually she got angry for the right reason, I support and agree w her. Students are late for about 10 mins and yet they are streaming in (no sense of urgency), next no manner/courtesy to greet her, and they just went to their seats and continued chatting and chatting. Really, just reflect upon your behaviours and manners. What is this? Plus the matter of fact that they are hcl students. Singaporeans really have to learn to be more courteous and mindful of their behaviours and attitude towards things.

There was guzheng later in the afternoon (dashed there straight after my screwed-up compo) It went pretty fine. Lao Shi repeated himself the importance of selecting the best of the best for SYF and we've got to work hard (technically, attendance & attitude). No sweat, no gain. Yup ;-D
Halfway through, I went to help Zenia w percussion. The four of us taught Pearlyn, Dora & Xiao Wei some basic techniques. Mr Yeo is going to come down soon to teach them. Come to think of that, I can still remember last year when Mr Yeo came to teach us. Now, it seems so fast, it's already the next batch.
The time spent w my class this week had been quite "interesting". I don't know if it's really that hard to volunteer yourself to be a subject monitress. I can see that Ms Ferng is really being very very extremely patient w us when it comes to the selections of monitress(es) and other administrative issues. Of course, she works by the book. Fair and just :) & I just feel that the cliquish thing in my class is really very strong. It somehow, prevents others to join. And honestly speaking, I'm feeling really funny, lousy of myself. Everything seems to have disappeared. I don't know why. I feel alone being the only prefect.
And there was photo-taking (passport photo) today and while I was asking them to settle down according to their register numbers, it's just plain bad. Some listen but most of them just heck care kind of attitude. Like later la, that kind of thing. I was trying so hard to settle them down, to get them ready so that we won't be held up and the photographer will not be angry or anything (cos normally photographers will want everything done quick, that's what i think) and the monitress(es) weren't even there to aid me. I guess Hui Shan did a little, but it didn't do much. Sigh.
Before taking the photo, I was already feeling angry inside. After taking, it became worse. (1) I caught 2 girls eating and bringing sandwiches into the Parade Square. Wel, I ran after them telling them the usual things, they didn't heed my advice. Hence, I went t the canteen to look for a teacher and just nice Ms Poon just got her food and I told her about the 2 girls. She went up to them and ok, they have been taught a lesson.
(2) Charlotte's group didn't want to go back to class for lesson. I asked them why, and they did not give me a definite answer so I told them that if they don't go back to lesson it will be counted as truancy. I was really boiling inside at that point of time, in the verge of tears too. After warning them, I just left. I really really couldn't care anymore because I can't afford myself being late for lesson.
